Paying tribute to her late dad, Veronicah penned an emotional letter.

"DEAR DAD

though your departure is painful

i wont question why it had to come

neither will I sorrow over it

instead, dad, allow me to celebrate you

I hurt inside to see you go

knowing the Love you had for me

recalling the many Promises I made

to try and repay your Goodness to me

Though my steps int life falter

i will always walk in your footsteps

and give the most I can to all

as you loved to do always

Your care knew no age

Your friendliness hugged everyone

You gave a word where required

You gave a hand where necessary

I will always live in the shadows

Of your abundant generosity

You gave by one's need

Not by status of recepient

Dad, your sudden departure

Hands me a heavy baton

To see your dream of the world

Achieved hopefully fully

Dad,

It's not easy walking

In shoes meant for you

But I will do my best

With your wisdom

And God's grace

I will manage

Rest well

Papa."
